The wine region of Saint-Péray
Cru of the northern Rhone (right bank, west of Valence, Ardeche, granitic soils): signature dominant Marsanne as white king (90%) with Roussanne — sparkling style (2/3 of production) with pale straw robe, floral nose, aromas of chestnut, apricot, toast, honey and almond, fine bubbles and airy mousse. Still wines with low acidity: dried apricot, acacia, beeswax, quince, white peach. Champagne method since 1829, signature finesse.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
